<p class="p_Heading3"><span class="f_Heading3">Delete analytics data</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When running a site with web analytics enabled, the amount of data that is stored may grow quite large over time, particularly when tracking many types of events or on high‑traffic websites. The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Delete analytics data</span> action can be used to remove hits that were logged for the selected statistic during the time period specified in the <span style="font-weight: bold;">From</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">To</span> fields. You can either choose a specific statistic or clear all analytics data for the given time interval by selecting the <span style="font-style: italic;">(all)</span> option from the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Statistics name</span> drop‑down list.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p_Heading3"><span class="f_Heading3">Generate analytics sample data</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This action logs randomly generated sample data for the selected statistics, which can be used to simulate hits measured over the given time period. The specific statistic and time interval may be configured the same way as when deleting data.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The purpose of this function is to allow testing or evaluation of the web analytics module and the various types of statistics that it provides, since a certain amount of time and traffic would otherwise be required to naturally log a realistic amount of data for the website.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1" style="border: solid 1px #000000; border-spacing:0px;">
<tr style="text-align:left;vertical-align:top;">
<td valign="top" width="57" style="width:57px; border: none"><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img src="embim28.gif" width="51" height="54" vspace="1" hspace="1" border="0" alt=""></p>
</td>
<td valign="top" width="511" style="width:511px; border: none"><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Important!</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The data generation process is a highly resource‑intensive operation, since it must create a very large amount of records in multiple database tables.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For this reason, it is necessary to set a reasonably short interval to prevent time out issues. This depends on the performance of the server used to host the site, but it is recommended to avoid generating more than six months of data in a single operation.</p>
